Todd Collins came to the rescue last night as Jason Campbell went down with a dislocated kneecap.  Campbell was playing pretty well before he was injured as he completed 10 of 16 passes for 100 yards.  But it was Todd Collins that led the offense to the promised land.  He completed 15 of 20 passes for 224 yards with 2 TDs and 0 interceptions.  Collins saved the game because the Skins couldn’t run the ball against the Bears last night.  Clinton Portis only rushed for 36 yards on 17 carries (2.1 ypc) and he also caught 6 passes for 86 yards (14.3 avg).  Ladell Betts couldn’t find any running room as he carried the ball 3 times for a loss of 3 yards (-1.0 ypc) but he caught 4 passes for 26 yards (6.5 avg) with a TD grab.  Chris Cooley hurt himself in the first half but he proved to be a warrior and came back in the second half as he finished with 5 catches for 93 yards (18.6 avg).  Antwaan Randle El also had a decent game with 4 catches for 60 yards (15.0 avg).  The Redskins finished with only 31 yards rushing on 24 carries (1.3 ypc) but they completed 25 of 36 passes for 314 yards.

The Redskins defense was led by London Fletcher (12 tackles) and Shawn Springs (4 tackles, 2 interceptions).  The Bears finished up with 60 yards rushing on 24 carries (2.5 ypc) and they also completed 29 of 51 passes for 296 yards.
